What file formats do you support?

We support over 100 file formats including images (JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, TIFF), documents (PDF, DOC, DOCX, TXT), videos (MP4, AVI, MOV), audio (MP3, WAV, FLAC), and many more specialized formats.

Yes, absolutely. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all file transfers. Your files are automatically deleted from our servers after conversion, and we never store or access your personal data.

What is the maximum file size?

The maximum file size for free users is 100MB per file. Premium users can convert files up to 1GB. For larger files, we recommend our batch processing feature.

How long does conversion take?

Most files convert in under 30 seconds. The exact time depends on file size and format complexity. Our advanced algorithms ensure the fastest possible conversion while maintaining quality.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Yes! Our batch processing feature allows you to upload and convert up to 50 files simultaneously. This is perfect for bulk conversions and saves significant time.

Do I need to create an account?

No account is required for basic conversions. However, creating a free account gives you access to batch processing, file history, and priority support.

Fast, browser-based RW2 to DDS conversion optimized for game assets and real-time texture workflows

Fast Local Processing

Convert RW2 raw images to DDS quickly in-browser without uploading to remote servers.

Preserve Detail

High-quality debayering and downsampling options retain luminance and color detail for textures.

Batch Ready

Process dozens of RW2 files in groups to produce consistent DDS texture sets.

Engine Compatibility

Output common DDS formats compatible with DirectX-based engines and many game editors.

Configurable Encoding

Choose compression block formats and mipmap generation suited to target platforms.

Client-Side Privacy

All decoding and encoding run in the browser memory; files do not upload by default.

Tips and Best Practices

Optimize your conversion workflow with technical recommendations.

Prepare RW2 RAW Source

Debayer RW2 with chosen white balance to control color shift during DDS encoding
Apply lens corrections in RAW stage to avoid baked-in artifacts in DDS textures
Export a linear or sRGB raster depending on engine linear workflow requirements
Convert RW2 exposures to 16-bit TIFF if you need extra headroom before DDS compression
Use camera-specific noise reduction sparingly to preserve fine texture detail

DDS Encoding Choices

Select BC7 for high-fidelity gradients when preserving RW2 tonal range matters
Use DXT1 for opaque textures to minimize DDS file size versus BC variants
Enable mipmap generation to avoid runtime aliasing in game engines
Choose sRGB or linear encoding based on whether texture is color or normal/roughness map
Avoid extreme compression ratios that induce block artifacts on fine RW2 detail

Toolchain and Platform Workflow

Validate DDS in your target engine editor (Unity/Unreal) for correct sRGB handling
If using Photoshop, install DDS plugin to inspect block-compressed outputs from RW2 sources
Test BC7 files on target GPU; older GPUs may lack native BC7 support causing fallback conversions
When targeting consoles, match platform texture requirements (alignment, mip layouts) before packaging
For automated builds, script conversion with consistent RW2-to-raster presets to ensure repeatable outputs

Verification, Metadata & Limits

Check that critical EXIF fields from RW2 were exported to sidecars if metadata is required at runtime
Compare 100% pixel crops of RW2 and DDS to detect demosaicing artifacts introduced during encode
Limit batch sizes on memory-constrained devices to avoid browser crashes during BC7 encoding
If you require alpha masks, generate them from RW2 selections before DDS encoding to maintain integrity
Retain originals; keep RW2 archives for reprocessing if DDS compression reduces required visual fidelity

Fast Processing

Close unused tabs for maximum throughput.

Client-Side Privacy

No media leaves your device.

Broad Compatibility

Output files work across all operating systems.

Pro Tip

For batch conversions, process in groups of 20-50 files to optimize memory usage and avoid browser slowdowns.
